We are joining forces with The Green Register, a Bristol-based sustainable building training and events organisation, to run a site visit to our Priory Garden project in Bath on January 26th.  

​This will offer a practical look at the realities of air-tightness, cold bridging, MVHR, timber frame and practical issues around Passivhaus.

About the project:
  • A new build 4 bedroom house, built to passive guidelines.
  • Essentially super-insulated timber frame, with the back of the house built in masonry.
  • A very difficult site to access with the building cut into the slope, with significant piling/tanking work to retain the land above.
  • The ground floor external walls are finished in Cotswold stone and the upper floor clad in Siberian larch.
  • The roof is finished in Sedum on insulated single-ply warm roof.
  • All windows are triple glazed – composite timber internal and aluminium clad external face with a nominal U value of 0.8.
